"Ei Pats Sc siente lastlma1o
abrigandoles en- su seio. como la
madre amorosa que s.fre las iEgra-
titudes de un hijo lesnaturalizado
Y los relega desde ahora al lugar
que deben ocurar las almas des-
graciadas, muortas, 6 insensibles .
los estimulos de la conciencla y ell
cOraz6n."
En- Caba, como aquf, sucede
1ue upos cuantos ciudadanos se
creep constituir por complete la
ent;dad pals.
Por ESQ escriben parrafos como
81 precedente.
va los que no piensan como
ellos SO permiten maldecirlos co
mo un padre al maj h;jo.
iCuidado, caballeros, que de 10
sublime q 10 ridiculo no hay mas
que un paso!
Pero ell senior Armas y Saenz
no sc quea6 mudo ante ell ataque
de EL Pals.
En- ell Diario de la Marina
aparece una carta del senior Ar
mas. En- la cual campean frases
tan elocuentes como eotas:
GO. Ell amor a mi provincial no
es nj puede ser Incompatible con
ell amor a la patria com1n."
"No soy, no somos los cuhanos
afiliados al partido de union Cons
titucional, hJos Observation-Disclosures
de Cuba; no, la amamos como el
que mas puede amarla.
No soy, no somos almas insensi-
bles a los estimulos de la concien-
cia Y ell coraZ6n.
No a los de Ia conciencia, por-
que la nuestra nos dice que defen-
demos los verdaderOs intereses de
Cuba.
No a los del coraz6n, porque 81 a
81 apelo 70, me presenta a mi ho
gar querido donde juguetean hoy
mis- hJos, nacidos al uno y al otro
lado de los mares; Y 81 acudimo;
todos 3 los recuerdos del pasado
ellos nos traen la imagen veneran
da de padres 6 abuelos, cuya me
moria debe inspirarnos considera
ci6n y respeto."
iBien, muy bien, magnifi "a
mente hablado!
Conceptos como los preceden
tes no tienen vuelta de hoja. Sor
la realidaI.
Esran muy equivo1sdos los au
tonomistas 81 persisten en- cree
que ell pats, en- Cuba y aqui, lt
componen ellos solamente. Po
tanto, huelgan sus excomuniones
ST ellos son par:e del pai,, tam
bien 10 son los que como los au
tOnOml6taS no plenSan.
Tan cubanos y tan puertorri-
quefios son los puertorriqu' no.
y cubanos que profesan nuestra
| ideas, como los que estan alista
dos en- las huestes autonomicas
Pese a quien pese.
De modo que tocan ell vio!6I
los que cuotidianamente increpal
q los antiilanos que militan Ell
nuestras fi'as, q causa de militia
en- elias.
Pero la question es hacer que
IRA implacabla d todos los que el
esrao Provlncias quieren ell order
I'll respeto q la A".~.ilau y la so
lidez de las instituciones patrias
Al cubano, porque es cubano
AL peninsular, porque es pc
nisular.
Y miren Wv. que fenomeno
A los antillanos que estau col
nosotros, Sc les ultraja sin piedad
A los peninsulares son tai
pocos y que forman causa comd'
con los autopomistas icomo 10
ponen por las nubes e,to>l
Desenganese quien desenganar
sc debe.
Al pai, no 10 constituye ell au

Aunque olga cierto senior gu
toda la provincial es autonomis

Attorney General Ayers of Virginia has
concluded to go to Jail rather than obey the
order of the United States court in the cou
pom cases. 1t Twill be remembered that hold
ers Of Virginia's repudiated bonds under
took to use the coupons to pay their taxes to
the State. The authorities refused to re-
ceive them, land the'Attorney General was or
dered to bring suits against the holders. But
they applied to Judge Bond of the United
States court, who issued an injunction re-
straining the Attorney General from prose-
cutting these suits. This injunction the At
torney General has now undertaken to disre-
gard, and announces his intention to suffer
martyrdom rather than obey the decree.
Outside Of Virginia there will be no sympa-
thy fol him if he remains in jail for life.
for the cause for which he elects to suffer is
the unholy one of reputation

The New York police appear to have done
good deal Of brutal and unnecessary club
bling at the meeting Of the Progressive Labor
party III New York Saturday night. While
one of the speakers was making an address
some friends of George called for three
cheers for their favorite. A socialist called
on the police to stop the shouting and one
OF the police captains taking taking twenty
men advanced into the crowd clubbing to
the right and left Unfortunately. great
many peaceabe spectators were hurt and
the meeting was broken up This bad bust
ness appears to have been the result entire
ly Of accident, but the Progressive Labor
party will no doubt herald it as deliberate
mo 'ement on the part of capitalists to break
up peaceable assemblage of laborng men,
and will no doubt succeed in making it very
useful in the campaign.

President Woodruff, the present head Of
the Mormon church, has addressed letter
to the saints enjoining them to repudiate the
action of the constitutional convention in
forbidding polygamy, and urging them to re-

gives some reason to hope that the repudia-
tion of polysamy by that convention was
not altogether sham.

Dennis Kearney has emerged from OBJ

Mr. Robert CARROTS opinions about the
trade between the syndicate and Jay Gould
for the Baltimore & Ohio telegraph may be
OF Importance to HIM and perhaps of inter-
est to the public. But their effect on the
syndicate and Mr. Jay Gould will be hardly
appreciable. The syndicate apparently had
full power to sell, and Gould full power to
buy. Mr. Garrett may protest, but his pro-
test will be in vain

The Bulgarian elections show that Prince
Ferdinand still maintains his hold on the
people In spite of the efforts of the Russians
to undermine it. The prospect of his being
able to hold on to the throne brightens. The
recent league between Germany, Italy and
Austria has somewhat checked the aggress-
I've course Of Russia, and so stiffened the
back of the Sultan that he may muster cour-
age enough to recognize Ferdinand as the
rightful ruler of Bulgaria.

JOHN NJ. DULANY, Sec.
1t win be noticed that not only must the
candidate pay an assessment as a condition
precedent for having his name placed on the
regular ticket, but he must pay it as condi-
ton precedent for being allowed to run as
candidate at all, for the bosses say plainly
that If he does not pay no votes thrown for
him will be counted. This certainly i, carry
Ing the assessment business to an extent
which 1t has never been heard of in any
other place than Baltimore, and it implies an
assumption Of power which puts the voters
of Baltimore entirely in the hands OF the
bosses; for il the bosses can disfranchise
citizens simply because the man whom they
have voted for has not shelled out, then they
can disfranchise them because he has not
contributed as literally as the bosses think
he ought to, or because the bosses do not like
him, or for hundred other reasons which
are as sound as the one they announce in
their circular. Indeed if the bosses are al
lowed to exercise such power as they threat
en- TO we do not see but popular government
IN Maryland Is practically at an end, and
mat suffrage has ceased to be a right and
become merely a privilege which the bosses
may bestow or withhold as they think best.
The New York World which has heen
making special investigation of Baltimore
politics, declares that there are 10000 lie
gslly registered names on the voting lists of
that city, and that thirty-seven conyicts and
criminals control the entire election macbin-
cry. In the list are five murderers and two
who have been tried for assault with in
tent to kill. One has been indicted nine
times and jailed thirty eight times. The
head fuglers are government office holders
appointed by President Cleveland's reform
administration.

The Boston Globe makes loud call upon
zile Mugwump bird to fly for all it is worth
and help elect Mr. Lowering and thus endorse
Mr.. Cleveland. Bnt the Mugwump is not
not quite so stupid bird as that. Candi-
date Lowering was nominated by a eonven-
tion which treated the Mugwump with
great indignity-plucked out his feathers
and otherwise abused him, and the Mug
wump hasn't forgotten it, nor is he likely to
efore the fan campaign is over.

1t is fact worth thinking about that in all
the public speaking that the President has
done since he started on his present trip, he
has not once referred in any way to the
great contest for the preservation of the
I mon, on. to any of the important results
which it brought to pass The edition of
the American Cyclopedia which he uses was
evidently published before 1861,
